PLOS Biology at ASCB 2013: Open for Cell Biology

At PLOS Biology, we strongly believe that we are open for a reason: our aim is to publish high quality research in areas of broad significance, ensuring that it reaches the widest possible audience without any barriers to access. Cell biology is an area of research that we believe should be as openly available as possible by being published in an open access, CC-BY journal, with associated data being mineable and reusable.

PLOS Biology publishes cell biology research of exceptional significance, originality, and relevance that informs research in its field and influences thinking beyond. We encourage you to consider PLOS Biology as a high visibility outlet for your future research. We are interested in all areas of cell biology. To get a taste of the research in cell biology that we have recently published, check out the links below to access the latest research in this field.

I will be attending the 2013 American Society of Cell Biology annual meeting in New Orleans next week together with my colleagues from PLOS ONE, and while there I very much look forward to meeting with our Academic Editors, authors, and reviewers in the cell biology research community.

If you are also attending the meeting and would like to find out more about how to publish in an Open Access journal, please visit us at the PLOS booth, number 211, where you can meet me and my PLOS colleagues. PLOS Biology is organizing a ‘meet the editor’ session on Monday, December 16, from 12-1pm – so do come by then. Alternatively, you can email me at plosbiology[at]plos.org to arrange a time to chat.

Looking forward to meeting you in New Orleans!

After graduating with a degree in Zoology in Madrid, Ines moved to Cambridge and became very interested in molecular biology and development while she worked as a research assistant in a Drosophila lab. She was awarded a PhD from the University of Cambridge and moved to Harvard University as a postdoctoral fellow. After a short collaboration at the European Molecular Biology Laboratory (EMBL) in Heidelberg, she moved back to Cambridge to do a second postdoc. She joined the PLOS Biology team in April 2008, and has since enjoyed collaborating closely with scientists to help them share their results.
